Cyberdevil's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Inktober2019 Day1 - Ring]

Buggy's World hmm... if it wasn't for the bug I'd have taken that as a One Piece reference. :) The apparition of that cricket did have me chuckling as soon as the image appeared, and the thought of these common insects emitting all but common sounds hmm... that'd be pretty interesting. XD Maybe in a parallel world somewhere.

Feels like the watermark/signature's a little distracting mid-image, but otherwise not bad... the proportions look right too, and you seem to capture both the wind and the width of the landscapes with the forms of the clouds and mountains here. It does feel a little cluttered/crammed together in black and white, but colored in I guess it'd be pretty easy to distinguish between the elements.

Making your own color books too! Impressive. It's been a long time since I tried one of those but it definitely seems like a therapeutic thing. I like the idea.

A lot of people like me Buggy's World and the Yodeling Cicadas seems to be popular on NG, or at least hit it off well. I had gotten 5 votes in a matter of a couple of days which would normally take like 2 weeks lol
I actually sold out of my stock of Buggy's World that I had built up, at the last craft fair that I was at. I got 5 therapeutic coloring books out now with a 6th on the way, which is be a patriotic based one in dedication for the soldiers and veterans who fight and fought for our country.
Therapeutic coloring books are very popular nowadays. Its not for kids anymore but for teens and adults to grandparents even.

I know pixel art's meant to be pixelated, but it's strange how this particular wing pattern comes across more as blurry than as the crisp pixel piece you'd expect... the colors converge.

Not a bad form though. Just something about that texture. Too realistic...? Interesting that might work with the wrong way with this particular art form.

gatekid3 responds:

some pixel art does have that look though. i think it just clashes with my usual aesthetic

[Strawberry ice cream]

Aaah unhealthy temptations are definitely better drawn than eaten, though when you see a drawing hmm... temptations come again.

So soft and bright too. Looks delicious.

kimikokat responds:

Thank you! Haha I feel your pain

[Morrigan Aensland]

Morrigan looking good! Bit strange the foot blurs without anything else blurring on the body though, as if she's just flicking the foot rather than in motion. Forms really be out there too with both the bend and twist, almost a bit much, but not bad.

DidiEsmeralda responds:

Thanks Cyberdevil for your comment

[Motor Velour]

She's really red riding that hood! :D Beautiful stuff. Those stark colors in the contrasts to the black and white/grayscale metallic matte too... love this.

ChutneyGlaze responds:

Thanks c.d. I love your reactions thanks man!

[CARRION (Edit)]

Heavy anti-aliasing and a morbid merger of dark, flesh-like matter... all with a teethy pixel crispness and angle that almost seems like a spin on sanity itself. A glimpse of... Madness? I love how this all flows together and consumes you. Morbid and immersive work.

CryptVoice responds:

Thank you man!

[carving love]

Ah brushtober, that's a name for it too! XD Would've been interesting with a list of brushes for the different days, come to think of it.

This one came across a bit simple compared to some of the earlier, forms somewhat uneven when they're not part of a larger collage, but do appreciate the motive! An almost cog-like pumpkin with lovable intent, for which you wonder what the aim is (a person? The occasion itself? The pumpkin?). Been fun to follow your Brushtober journey this year! Happy Halloween man!

davidpuralocura responds:

thank you
good idea on what brush i use (still learning)
it has really been fun to follow you too with your rap
maybe "raptober" idk lol
seeing someone doing daily things as myself was a great motivator
and i hope i motivated you too
consistency is impressive and so are we

[Sometimes I Wish Life Was More Interesting]

lmao. XD Sometimes you just gotta go out there, put that cape on, and stand on a rooftop for a few minutes to really get that moonshine in the best possible manner...

Really made me smile wide, this one. Solid detail too. Uneven panels don't make it worse I feel, not very noticeable margins at all; especially not when one of the panels breaks the mold as it does. Also didn't realize you did proper comic strips! Wouldn't mind more of these.

-cd-

Void responds:

Thanks heaps! Yeah I should get back into making comics regularly...

[Inktober 2019]

#5 has gotta be my favorite this year. :) Good stuff. not the biggest doodle on the daily, but when it all comes together like this it's an impressive manifesto of characters, creativity and simple mindful fun! Kind of stuff you could have as a poster hmm... good stuff.

ChazDude responds:

Cheers, Cyber!

[snek tongue]

This is both strangely disturbing and strangely inviting... wonder if I've ever seen this in drawing before...

BlackSaikou responds:

can't take full credit, it's actually based on a pic I saw
